My Hermes System

A Speedster in a Fantasy World More than a thousand years ago, portals opened up in the world. Swallowing up the world whole with the vile creatures that came out of it. The humans struggled for years as their weaponry could only get them as far as fending them off. But everything changed when the first super human was discovered, a child that was born after the portals have appeared. From then on, the humans have discovered that there were others, and they all held the same power... A power that was known as the System. And those who were born with it were called System Holders. The System Holders, with their mysterious powers, were the ones who helped recover the world from the monsters, once again reclaiming it. And now, a hundred years later, a System Holder was born, the Holder of the Hermes System, the Gatherer of Souls.

Chapter 147: 60 Years Ago

More than half a century ago, when order still did not exist in the Encampment; when Latanya Boss still lived amongst the Locals, the attacks on the Wall have become frequent, uncontrollable.

Almost every day, the Prisoners tried to bombard and attack the Wall. Their attacks were uncoordinated, however. So Latanya and the rest of the Locals just scoffed at their pathetic attempts.

But everything changed when one of them died. With just one death, Latanya had enough.

She ordered the Culling of the Prisoners, not even waiting for the City to grant them to do so. She took a hundred of her best men and infiltrated them during the night.

With the darkness as their ally and the element of surprise with them, everything became easy. The Prisoners had no coordination whatsoever, their counterattacks were futile. In fact, before they even got there, there were already corpses littered everywhere-- the Prisoners have been killing each other.
